3.2.2.1 Wireless AP only
When you are in the AP only mode, you can set up the basic wireless
functions as below:
42
AP setting:
z
SSID: The SSID identifies a specific wireless LAN. Before associating
with a particular wireless LAN, a station must have the same SSID as
the access point. The default SSID setting is “WAP0007”. NOTE:
Please DO NOT set the same SSID with your current wireless
network.
z
Channel: The radio channel number. The default channel is “6”.
NOTE: Please DO NOT set the same Channel with your current
wireless network.
z
Authentication: Authentication ensures that digital data transmissions
43
are delivered to the intended receiver. This option enables you to set
the authentication method for various encryption schemes for the
selected AP.
z
Open or shared WEP Encryption: Select “64” or “128” bits in the
pull-down menu for encryption method to protect your data by
encrypting it. The WEP key can be 5~13 ASII characters or 10~26
hexadecimal characters based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit
WEP encryption.
z
802.1X: IEEE802.1x authentication can be done by using an external
RADIUS server.
Please input the IP address of RADIUS server and Shared Secret.
Please refer to FAQ in Chapter 7 to get more detailed information.
z
WPA-PSK: AP and Client need to use identical Pre-shared key (PSK).
Please input 64 Hex key (0~F) or 8~63 characters in ASCII Type.
Note. This device only supports WPA version 1.
z
WPA: WPA applies IEEE802.1x and Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP) to authenticate wireless clients using an external
RADIUS server.
Please input the IP address of RADIUS and Shared Secret.
Please refer to FAQ in Chapter 7 to get more detailed information.
44
Advance Setting:
z
Wireless mode: 11b/g mixed can let 11g or 11b computers both exist
on the network, but the speed will be reduced. Select 11g only for
maximum speed, but no 11b users will be allowed on the network.
z
Beacon interval: This represents the amount of time between beacon
transmissions. The interval tells receiving devices on the network
how long they can wait in low-power mode before waking up to
handle the beacon. Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to
synchronize a wireless network. Specify a Beacon interval value
between 1 and 1000. The default value is set to 100 milliseconds.
z
RTS Threshold: The RTS threshold specifies the packet size of an
RTS transmission. This helps control traffic flow through an access
45
point, especially one with many clients. The setting value range is
from 1 to 2347, and default value is set to 2347.
z
Fragmentation: In a network, the maximum size or length of a
fragment is determined by the protocol used to transport the data.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2346. If you
experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase your
"Fragmentation" value within the value range of 256 to 2346, even
number only. Setting the Fragmentation value too low may result in
poor performance.
z
DTM interval: A Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is a
countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the Access Point has
buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it
sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. AP clients hear the
beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast
messages. Enter a value from 1 to 255 for DTIM. The default value
for DTIM interval is set to 3.
z
Preamble Type: The Preamble Type defines the length of the CRC
(Cyclic Redundancy Check) block for communication between the
Access Point and roaming wireless adapters.
z
SSID Broadcast: Enable or Disable a SSID broadcast. When
enabled, the SSID of WAP-0007 is sent to wireless enabled devices
on the LAN.
Press “Next” button, you could see the Wireless MAC Filtering setting.
46
The default setting is “Disable Mac filtering”, every wireless client could
connect to this AP. When you select “ALL accept”, the wireless clients with
the MAC addresses you enter bellow will be accepted to connect to this AP,
the others will be rejected. When you select “ALL Reject”, the wireless clients

What can I do when I have some trouble in the first time?
1. How do I make the client to connect the WAP-0007?
A: Please prepare for one RJ45 cable and connect the LAN port directly.
WAP-0007 already supports MDI/MDIX.
2. How to “Reset to default”?
A: Press the buttons of “Shutdown” and “Backup” simultaneously over 6
seconds to reset the system to the factory default setting.
3. When I login the storage of WAP-0007 via my network place, but I can
not find any files of Folders even if I have plugged HDD in WAP-0007.
A: First, check your HD status LED. If the HD is correctly connected, the HD
status LED will flash. If the LED didn’t flash, maybe you forget to format
the new HD before using it, or maybe the HD is not connected correctly,
or maybe the HD is corrupted.
WAP-0007 supports FAT/FAT32/EXT2 file systems. If the format of HDD
is NTFS, the device just can read files and cannot copy any files to NTFS
folders
4. No matter what I do, I can not configure WAP-0007 even if I setup fixed
IP and can search or Ping WAP-0007.
A: Please check the WLAN Led or HDD LED. If normal, they will be flash.
Otherwise Reset to Default and try it again.
64
5. I can not save the file which size is large than 2GB.
A: Please check the file system of your HDD. For FAT or FAT32, this problem
does exist. Suggestion: To convert to ext2.
6. I can’t access the shared folder with 98/Me.
A: If you use Windows 98/Me, and want to access the authorized folder, you
MUST have the same account and password in WAP-0007 and your
computer.
7. Why do I see the wrong name of file during the setting or in the my
network place?
A: Please select the corresponding language as you need. Please configure
again.
How to setup wireless function?
1. How can I use the wireless function?
65
A: Generally speaking, there are four modes to setup in this device. The
common function is “AP mode”. The user can make this device as
Wireless AP device as follows:
First, the wireless client sets up the same SSID with WAP-0007 and get IP
from Router. Then Wireless client can associate the network or roam
Internet via Router.
66
Wireless Client Mode: First, please configure the wireless setting of
WAP-0007 via wire. Then use Scan AP of AP-List and join it. Plug up the
cable form WAP-0007. The client from LAN can use “Configure” utility to
Query.
WDS only mode: WDSÆWireless Distribution system. This device also
supports this function. How to configure this in your circumstance? The
below Figure1 is for the reference. First, check which channel you want to
use. For example, channel 10. Scan other AP which channel is 10 and
supports WDS function. Second, add the wireless MAC address of
WAP-0007 in this Wireless Router # 2. (Figure2). And use Scan AP to find
the wireless which SSID is “WR-2” and join it in the list. Third, if it is normal,
LAN-Host#1 can find the devices, like Wireless Router #2 and
LAN-Host#2.

Figure 1:
Figure2:
68
WDS Hybrid mode: This device also supports WDS and AP mode at the
same time. How to configure this in your circumstance? The below figure
is for the reference.
69
For the setting of WDS, please refer to the above WDS only mode.
For AP setting, please refer to the AP mode.

Problems of security level
1. Why can’t I access the file from my places after enabling Security
Level?
A: Sometimes, I can not access the folders via my places after enabling
Security Level, like below:
If the user sees the warning message, please restart windows and try it
again. But there are some situations that the users can not access this
folder if even they input correct the account and password as below:
77
Situation 1: The users can access the files or folders before WAP-0007 is
not enabled “security Level”. But when WAP-0007 is enabled it, the
authorization users can not login by inputting the account and password.
Please restart your window OS and It can be accessed.
Situation 2: Change the account and password of WAP-0007. In brief, the
users have some Limit authority to access the folders, but if someone
changes account and password this time, other authorization users can
not access at all. Please restart your window OS.
This is because the windows will cache some records so that the settings
can not work immediately and the users have no idea to restart the device.
2. How do I configure the authority of file-shared by my places and ftp
service?
A: Take an example as follows:
First, Set account 123 and password 12345.
Then Click Configure the shared directory.
78
Create two folders. One is “read”, and the other is “write”. The authority is
as follows:
Then click the User Access Configuration and save “Security Level”.
79
Use search WAP-0007 hostname, if you can not access the directory
“Storage”.
Then you will find the WAP-0007 and will find some folders, like read, write
and Storage.
80
If you are a guest and you can only copy the files in the folder ”read” and
copy, move and delete the files or folders in the folder ”write”.
※But if you are an Authorization user. You can directly click the folders
“read and write”. However, you just have the same limits of authority with
guests. Please login the folder “Storage” to begin.
This product also defines two user-level(Guest and Authorization users) to
share files by ftp service.
The configuration is the same with above. There are two folders to share.
If the users use guest to login ftp service, he just accesses read or write
folders. Or login as Authorization users, he can access all.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license
document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and
change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee
your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for
all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it.
(Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Library
General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General
Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute
copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive
source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the soft-ware or use
pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you
these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to
certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you
modify it.
82
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee,
you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that
they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms
so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you
this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the
software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone
understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is
modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what
they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not
reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to
avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent
licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it
clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Terms And Conditions For Copying, Distribution And
Modification
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed
by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General
Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a
"work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either
verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter,
83
translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee
is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this
License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted,
and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work
based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish
on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give
any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at
your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus
forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or
work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these
conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you
changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part
contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole
at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you
must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary
way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice
84
and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty)
and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the
user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is
interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of
that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered
independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do
not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when
you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the
Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every
part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights
or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise
the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the
Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the
Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2)
in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above
provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code,
which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
85
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third
party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source
distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to
be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute
corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial
distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form
with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the
source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files,
plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable.
However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the
executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a
designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the
same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are
not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as
expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from
86
you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties
remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or
its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this
License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on
the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms
and condi-tions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based
on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the
recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not
impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for
any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you
(whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of
this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you
cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License
and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free
redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
87
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular
circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a
whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other
property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the
sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system,
which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous
contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in
reliance on consis-tent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to
decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a
licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a
consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either
by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the
Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as
if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit
to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a
version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have
the option of following the terms and condi-tions either of that version or of any later
version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify
88
a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the
Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose
distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For
software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be
guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS
NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING
THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL
NECESSARY SERVICING,
REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY
OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE
89
PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY
TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES
SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
